It is a lamentable fact that there is little chance 
for the American artist to succeed and win the recogni- 
tion of critics. His musical abilities may be superior to 
those of the foreigner who comes to this country and 
plays to crowded houses at enormous prices, but he is 
under the ban— he is American. While he is forced to 
take up teaching to support himself, there is a host of 
foreign artists of the first or second class, with long 
and unpronounceable names, who are imported to fill the 
limited demand in this country, and cater to the fancies 
of the public. The fore.ign artists get all the backing 
of the piano houses, that of the most enterprising man- 
agers, all the booming in the papers, and most of the 
pull with the public; while the poor American Smith or 
Jones, although he may play as well, cannot draw the 
public, being no "Wonder Child," and never having 
"delighted monarchs at three years of age." All this 
will remain true for some time yet, for the conditions 
which cause this attitude cannot be immediately altered, 
and nine out of every ten American artists will be com- 
pelled to teach for an existence, when they would do 
the public a much greater service on the concert stage. 

Let us for awhile look at the reason for this condi- 
tion of aif airs. Edward Baxter Perry has expressed it 
thus: "The fact is simply that there is very little real

THE CRESCENT 



musical culture and discrimination in this country as yet, 
and, generally speaking, very little culture of any kind." 
This is said, not of musicians, but of the listening pub- 
lic We are too young, too brutally energetic, too fran- 
tically in a hurry to recognize value impartially. We 
incline toward the sensational too much. It is not the 
superiority, or style of the foreigner that pleases. It is 
the fact that he comes from that far-away wonderland 
across the waters, has a foreign name, and is making a 
brilliant success in American musical centers. 

Our people, as a rule, do not recognize true art 
when it is presented to them, much less care for it. 

As a consequence, they must be appealed to in a 
different manner. There is nothing which can appeal 
more strongly than novelty, which awakens curiosity. 
Novelty is what makes the foreign name, manners, ac- 
cent, etc, appeal to the American public Any man- 
ager will tell you that a given artist from abroad is 
worth much less per night the second season than the 
first, because he is better known. The novelty is off to 
some extent, and curiosity is slacked. 

How often the adjectives Great! Marvelous! Won- 
derful! are used in advertising some new artist, appeal- 
ing direct to the curiosity, and you can draw as large 
an audience as you please. Over four-fifths of every 
concert audience is drawn solely through curiosity, and 
not through love of music as such, or appreciation of it 

Alfred H. Hansrath, in his enthusiasm for Ameri- 
can music says: "We have with us a species of foreign 
art seed, the seed that was planted for a flower, and 
developed into a cabbage. He insists that he is a flow- 
er, for that is the name on the package from which he 
issued forth. And although he may pose as a lily of 
the field, he toils, also doth he spin— toils for the al-

mighty dollar, and spins some musical yarns about him- 
self. 

"Again we have the foreign music-horse of doubt- 
ful ancestry who would ride over and trample upon ev- 
ery thing American in music He forgets that his 
teacher repeatedly hinted that his ears were too long 
for him to pose as a horse. Long ears and long hair 
seem to roll up upon these shores in great abundance." 

But enough in depreciation of the foreign artist 
who comes to America for money. When the public 
learns to judge the merits of music, and appreciate the 
interpretation of a musical program, and not the inter- 
prater, then will the American artist win his place in 
the world of music When the public becomes educated 
to the appreciation of good music, and forgets the popu- 
lar delusion that the foreign musician is the only one 
worth hearing, then the American musician can earn a 
good living on the concert stage, and supply a need of 
the public— real musical exhibition. Fortunately there 
are in every community a few people who love music 
for music's sake, and know the merits of a player. 
They stand for American music for Americans. They 
are striving earnestly and enthusiastically for the pro- 
motion of musical taste and intelligence in the public in 
general, and do not care for the name or origin of the 
artist It is to these we owe what recognition the local 
artist does have; and it is to these we must look for a 
culture in music which is bound to come before many 
years. 

The question resolves itself down to this: give our 
students the proper environment and we will give Ger- 
many or any other country as good a pianist as they 
give us. It is not the lack of talent which handicaps 
us, it is the surrounding conditions and public prejudice

admiration. 

He rejoices in an unconventional, unrestrained and 
easy flowing humor. The fact of his baldness, (for, as 
a friend says of him, "His mediaeval hair is excessively 
rare") is one of his sources of humor; and he has taken 
great pains to show that baldness is a mark of genius. 
He has quoted many names to corroborate this fact, be- 
ginning the list with Homer and ending with Patrick 
Henry. 

Our Southem humorist is Joel Chandler Harris. 
His work consists largely in writing short stories for 
the magazines, but beside this he has written twenty- 
two volumes of stories and poems. He calls his career 
accidental. Brought up in the South, from his boy- 
hood he was fond of hearing and telling stories, espe- 
cially the cabin stories of the negro. His mind is stored 
with these stories, to which every Southern boy or girl 
listens, full as they are of quaint humor, homely philos- 
ophy and simple goodness. He simply gives to us that 
which is in him, freely, fully and without affectation. 
His stories of Uncle Remus carry us in imagination to 
an old negro cabin, lighted only by the open fire, which 
casts strange shadows on the wall and shines upon the 
shadowy fascinated faces of the negro children, who 
are held spellbound by Uncle Remus' tales of Brer Rab- 
bit and Brer Fox, of Brer Rabbit's Laughin' Place, of 
why Mr. Cricket has elbows on his legs, and of the Haid 
Headed Woman. 

America's humorist of widest note is Mark Twain. 
He was born in 1835, in Missouri, because, he said, 
"Missouri was an unknown state and needed attrac- 
tions." He traces his ancestry back to slavers and 
pirates of Queen Elizabeth's time, and says this is 
probably the reason he feels at times such a strong de- 



THE CRESCENT 



7 



sire to be a pirate, and feels so friendly toward Satan. 

Some one has remarked that the proverbial irony of 
fate was never more clearly marked than by the fact 
that the world's greatest humorist has been a succession 
of personal tragedies. At the age of three he was for- 
gotten by his parents and left alone in a forsaken house. 
And continually since then trials and bereavements and 
intervals of despondency have clouded his life. But in 
his breast there lives a spirit that rises triumphant over 
all this, and he still continues, after half a century to 
make joy for more millions of human beings than any 
other. 

The story is told that when he was in London the 
report was cabled to the American journals that Mark 
Twain was dying. The London representatives began 
to flock in to see him, when they found he was alive and 
well. When asked by one of them what answer he 
should send his journal in America, he responded "Tell 
them the report is greatly exaggerated." 

A lady acquaintance of his is very apt to interrupt 
what one is saying, and he told his wife he thought he 
should say to this lady's husband, "I am very glad your 
wife was not present when the Deity said 'let there be 
light' " 

He is the most widely read American man of let- 
ters. His most characteristic books are to be had in 
many languages, and his name is familiarly spoken by 
people to whom the names of Emerson and Hawthorne 
bring no meaning. He is loved because he has struck 
an original note, and his work is fresh, vivid and nat- 
ural. His "Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "Huckle- 
berry Finn," and his "Innocents Abroad" will be read 
and loved in future ages, because they portray real life

in terms of beauty, freedom, humor and power. 

Perhaps the humorist whom we as Americans love 
most is James Whitcomb Riley, the Hoosier poet More 
truly than any other American author he expresses the 
life of his people — the inner life— the humor, the sym- 
pathy, the common sense of the American people. He 
himself says of his work: "I went among the people; I 
learned their wants, their sufferings and their joys, and 
I put these into verse." 

His verse is not conventional and artistic— on the 
contrary he writes simply and naturally about the most 
common and homely themes. But he touches the heart 
life and the home life of his people. Very aptly some 
one has put it: 

"Indeed there's no high flyin' business 'bout that kind of rhyme, 
'N sassitieB to interpret it 'ud be a waste of time; 
But when it cornea to searchin' hearts and founts o' things, 
You don't git things much searchiner than them songs Jim Riley 
sings." 

One of Riley's humorous characters is his farmer — 
big, tall and uncouth, yet with a tender heart; awkward 
and unconventional, yet full of kindliness and true 
philosophy. He says of "Old John Henry": 

"His doctern'B jest o' the plainest brand— 

A smilin face and a hearty hand 

*8 religion 'at all folks understand. 

He aint refined as he'd ort to be 

To fit the statutes o' poetry; 

Ner his clothes don't fit him— but he fits me!" 
But Riley is at his best in his poetry of childhood. 
Nowhere else do we find such real children, absolutely 
true to child life. His is the ordinary naughty child, 
full of mischief and unconscious humor, with all a 
child's dreams and aspirations. Out of these simple 
and commonplace things Riley weaves verses that never 



THE CRESCENT 



9 



cease to delight. A characteristic verse is one in "An 
Impetuous Resolve, " where four boys are planning 
what they will be when they are men. Dick is to be a 
sailor, Harney a tailor, and Bud a carriage maker. 
An" when I grow a grea' big man 

I'm goin to be a baker; 
An' Dtck'll buy his sailor suit 
O' Hame, an Hatne'll take it 
An' buy as fine a double rig 
As ever Bud can make it; 
An nen all thrce'll drive roun' fer mo, 

An' we'll drive off together— 
A slingin' pie crust 'long the road' 
Forever an' forever. 

Another characteristic poem is entitled "Fool 
Youngens," 

Me an' Bert, en' Minnie Bell 
Knows a joke an' we won't tell! 
No, we don't— cause we don't know 
Why we got to laughin' so; 
But we got to laughin' so 
We ist kep' a laughin'. 

Win/i was blowin' in the tree— 
An' wuz only ist us three 
Playin' there; an' ever' one 
Ketched each other, like we done 
Squintin' up there at the sun, 

Like we wuz laughin'. 
Nothin' funny anyway: 
But I laughed, an' so did they — 
An' we all three laughed, an r nen . , 

Squint our eyes an' laugh agin; 
Nor we didn't ist p'ten — 

We wuz shore nuff laughin'. 
We ist laugh an' laugh, tel Bert 
Say he can't quit an' it hurt. 
Nen I howl, an' Minnie Bell 
She tear up the grass a spell 
An' ist stop her yeers an yell 

Like she d die a-laughin'. 
Never sich fool -youngens yit! 
Nothin' funny— not a bitl — 
But we laugh so, tel we whoop 
Purt' nigh like we had the croup- 
All so hoarse we'd whe ze an' whoop 

An' ist choke a-laughin' M- E. L. "05.

Some college people are prone to be pessimistic in 
regard to the merits of their own school. They shut 
their eyes to the advantages and superior qualities, and 
become blinded by the few drawbacks— possibly imag- 
inary ones. And this is no wonder, for a student's life 
is not the easiest, mo3t pleasant life possible. But say! 
Let's be optimists! 

Some of our exchanges have frequently mentioned 
a lack of college spirit, or criticised certain individuals 
through their columns. We do not doubt that this crit- 
icism was needed, for there are knockers in every school 
and student bodies are apt to become lukewarm, but we 
do think the college paper should be kept free from 
complaint It casts a gloom over the whole paper, and 



THE CRESCENT 



•11 



gives a reader the wrong opinion of the school. The 
criticism was of course only intended for the students 
of the home school, but the exchanges are often even 
more careful readers than the local students. Half bur 
victories come from never admitting when we are beat- 
en. We want more of the spirit shown by the small boy 
who, after being hammered fifteen minutes by a larger 
boy, boasted that he had done the pounding. As far as 
he was able he had. 

. Whatever we do, students, let's be patriotic. We 
know that Pacific College is the best place on earth, and 
we ought to let people know. When anyone asks you 
how school is, tell them it was never better,, and that 
we are doing good work. We are doing much better 
work than last year, and the students are more con- 
tented. We have better prospects in athletics, debate, 
oratory, and every other line of college work. We 
must all hang together, as Franklin said, or we will all 
hang separately. 

William Matthews, the veteran author and university 
professor, has an excellent article in the Christian En- 
deavor World for Nov. 26 on "What I Would Do Were I 
to Go Through College Again." Mr. Matthew says: 
' 'First, of all, I would seek to have and to maintain sound 
health, sanam mentem in sano corpore. The first con- 
dition of success in college and in life is to be a good 
animal. A pound of energy with an ounce of talent 
will achieve greater results than a pound of talent with 
an ounce of energy. It has been justly said that intel- 
lect in a weak body is like gold in a spent swimmer's 
pocket. L * * * When shall we learn that health is a 
very different thing from strength, that it is not. mus-

cular power, the ability to lift a thousand pounds, or to 
walk a thousand miles in a thousand hours? It has been 
truly said that, while in some respects identical, they 
are still distinct forces. One is the power that does; 
the other that which endures; one wins wages, the oth- 
er, the prizes of life. Health is not the synonym of 
strength: it is, as I have said, a universal good condi- 
tion; it is general vigor, vitality, nerve force, a state of 
the body in which every function does its work well." 

President Roosevelt is to receive one dollar a word 
for a description of his African hunting trip. This 
seems at first a large price, and yet the publishers will 
make a big profit off the President's report Roosevelt 
is a vigorous writer with a perspicuous, vigorous style, 
and people will read Roosevelt's works as soon as those 
of any other present writer. Formerly writers received 
more than this. Whittier received ten thousand dollars 
for "Snowbound," or two dollars a word. Byron re- 
ceived twenty thousand for "Childe Harold," and 
Moore received fifteen thousand for "Lallah Rookh," 
and seventy-five thousand for "Irish Melodies." Pres- 
ent writers, however, do not receive so much. Presi- 
dent Roosevelt is to be associated with the "Outlook" 
later. The "Outlook" has been Roosevelt's best friend.

An invitation is extended to all the girls to join the 
mission study class. We will use Josiah Strong's "The 
Challenge of the City" as a text book. The class will 
be taught by Mrs. Reagan and will meet Thursday even* 
ings immediately after school. 

The Student secretary, Miss Hopkins, will visit the 
college and high school Saturday, Sunday, Monday and 
Tuesday. A union meeting of the two societies, to be 
led by Miss Hopkins, will be held Sunday afternoon in 
the association room of the college. 

Prof. Reagan led the weekly prayer meeting on Nov, 
24. He gave us an interesting and impressive talk on 
girls' influences. 

The prayer meetings are well attended this year. 

Mrs. Reagan led the meeting Dec. 1st 

The visit of Gale Seaman December 3 was one of 
profit to our association. Not only was his talk in chap- 
el interesting but his message to the boys at the one 
o'clock meeting was very helpful and inspiring. Mr. 
Seaman will always be welcome here for his earnest, 
straightforward, unassuming manner won the respect 
of all who met him. 

Those who attend the conventions usually come back 
with the purpose of improving things at home and the 
McMinnville convention was no exception. Get the con-

association more nearly what it should be. 

The average attendance at the Wednesday meetings 
is larger than last year, but should be still larger. We 
have had some very good meetings.

^Basketball. 

Although we have no regular coach for basketball, 
we have the basketball spirit and have gotten together 
a team that will do credit to themselves and the institu- 
tion. 

WALNUT CITY VS. P. C. 

On November 20, we played our first game against 
Walnut City team of McMinnville. The teams were 
well classed and the game was hotly contested through- 
out. The home team, however, showed good training 
and won the game by a score of 27 to 17. 

Y. M. C. A. VS. P. C. 

On November 27, the team did credit to themselves 
in the first league game which was played at Portland 
against the Y. M. C. A. Notwithstanding the score of 
34 to 14 the game was very close. At the end of the 
first half it certainly looked favorable for the collegians 
to win. They had outplayed the club team on the floor 
and had they been able to hit the basket as well, they 
would no doubt have had a much larger score. 

MULTNOMAH VS. P. C. 

On the next evening, the 28th of November, the 
boys from Pacific played a game in which they were out- 
classed. The game of the night before told on them 
and it was Multnomah's game. The score was 42 to 8. 
In the last half, in which the score was 14-6, Multno- 
mah had to earn all they got. 

EAST SIDE ATHLETIC CLUB VS. P. C. 

On Saturday evening, the 5th of December, Pacific 
won from the East Side A. C. of Portland by a score of 
25 to 15. When we get up against something that is in 
our class we can play basketball with good grace. The 
team all played fine ball and played together.
